How about something more cheerful above the fold?

Itty Bitty Action Shots. The Rooster is surprising the chicken. “BOO!”

Ellie is a baby of few words. She’s said Important Words (“mama” “cheese” “algahyahyah”*) for a very long while, and employes a wealth of gestures and sounds to get her point across. Each new English word added to her vocabulary is a surprise and a treat. She added “play” (pronounced “pehyay”) a few weeks ago. Now the chorus of my day goes something like this:

“play mama play mama mama play play mama play”

Heh.
